the ban is lifted
and it's about time.
Responsible dog owners all over Eastbourne rejoice.
I'm all for dog restrictions, but not allowing dogs on any Eastbourne beaches (apart from the one on the far end that's about a 10 minute drive from us) from 9am - 8pm for 6 1/2 months of the year is seriously over the top.
Oh, just don't even get me started. I can't count the number of letters to Council I've composed in my head as we walked on the dangerous main road...absent a footpath...right next to the usually deserted beach. I made Jeremy promise that if we get hit by a car, he can't let it be in vein.
Well, the three of us can go back to enjoying our rock ramblings at whatever hour suits our fancy.

And for those around me, you can rejoice too. You don't have to hear me complain about it until October. :-)

i'm surprised you haven't written actual letters to the council - i've always thought of you as somewhat of an activist. is there any legitimate reasoning for the ban...i know you said "don't even get me started" but i might have...
i know i know. i should have actually written the letter and i contemplated getting a petition started. yada yada. all talk, no action, i guess. it just kept getting pushed down on my list. i hope this doesn't tarnish your opinion of me... doesn't mean i won't do it at some point. :-)
